Steps:
- String Orchid blooms and buds to create 3ft.-4ft. lengths you'll need approx. 10-12 pcs.
- Using the aluminum wires, cut 3ft. lengths and create tendrils along the length of the wire...you should end up with a 2ft. length. You'll need two pcs.!
- Start wrapping the aluminum wire with the orchid leis until the desired thickness is achieved. Don't worry if it's a little loose!
- Use the bullion wire to tighten the leis and to create an accent on the sculpture.

- You'll need a larger version of this to place on the table.
- Accent this grouping with the silver spray painted votive candles.
